What did your family and friends think about you
getting into the business?
My parents were surprisingly good with it. Before I
started tattooing I was already pretty heavily tattooed
and it all went pretty smooth. I guess they just
trusted me; I was a reasonable kid after all. (Laughs.)
Describe how you go about creating a tattoo from
concept to finished design, as well as how you try to
put your own unique touch on your tattoos.
I usually start with getting info about the particular
motive. Knowing what it is and represents actually
helps a lot. When you actually do know and
understand what you’re drawing, it makes it easier
and better. My unique touch would be… I don’t know,
just doing what I do, it’s pretty subconscious.
How would you describe your style? And which
tattoo style do you like best?
It’s always difficult when it comes to this because
I was never really following any particular style.
I achieve the best outcome by not becoming too
inspired by anyone else’s style. My best results come
from my own inspiration. I guess you could describe
it as abstract and graphic with touches of watercolor.
